My ups man must hate me, this box weighed a TON.  I had to get my super sliders to move it into the house from my porch.  Very well packed, assembled it ALONE in about 15 minutes.  Absolutely ingenious.  Not a single piece of particle board, everything is wood.  Cord management slots are well placed and right size.  It is VERY stinky and made in China.  They must be finishing and immediately packing, smelled like it came right out of the booth.  I expect it will off gas in a day or two.  Finish is CHERRY, maybe a bit darker than the picture with very little grain character.  Hardware is all metal, quality feel.  I couldn´t be happier with this purchase.  It is petite, measure your components, my receiver just squeaked in.
